Ever since the Land ‘o Lakes statement & Fr. Hesburg many Catholic universities & colleges have followed the pattern of it, if you’ve visited Notre Dame, the vestiges of the Catholic faith are still moving to the soul, but University wishes to be more akin to Ivy Leagues especially if your peruse the books assigned to students at the book store.

Many Catholic high schools follow a similar pattern wanting to be more akin to a charter school. The theology department? Secondary.

It’s the current state of things, I don’t see it reversing course. There are good schools out there. A lot upstart Catholic & Christian schools are bringing back the Classical Curriculum model. If you’re faithful and a parent these decision can be difficult.
